Vertical machining centres

Designed to suit companies of every size, the application scope for Chiron's affordable high-speed vertical machining centres extends from stand-alone installations through to manufacturing cells and lines involving up to eight integrated machines.

The Chiron machining technology lends itself to be described as, for example, 'lean' and 'diverse' manufacturing. In other words, the machines are configured to be cost-effective solutions to both low - and high-volume dedicated or variable-batch requirements, or any combination of the two.

Applications engineering

To meet today's flexible production demands, it is not enough for companies to install 'off-the-shelf' dedicated vertical spindle machines. Just as their customer expectations change, so Chiron users also need to know that their machines are adaptable manufacturing tools.

The Chiron UK applications engineering team knows what you expect, and are expertly skilled at developing solutions based, for example, vertical split beds - even manufacturing techniques using indexable rotary tables instead of traditional beds - utilising perhaps pallet changers or fixture carrying robots.

Chiron has the solution!

After-sales support

The job of a machine tool is to make components. The job of the Chiron Werke customer support team is to ensure the machines do just that. With a nationwide team of 12 dedicated field engineers ready to respond to a machine call-out within four hours - at any time of the day or night - Chiron UK was one of the first machine tool companies in the UK to implement round-the-clock customer service and call-out. We believe we've got the most sophisticated and responsive customer service operation in the UK.
